Who can imagine Jon Jones fighting in the Heavy Weight category? Even for a Light Heavy Weight fighter he looks slim. He's tall but skinny, so I really think he would be a bad HW fighter.
The guy comes from a family of athletes, he could always bulk up. I remember seeing a picture of him when he was first suspended, he looked huge at the time.

Jon Jones is dominating all the fighters in Light Heavy Weight division and he proved everything and there is not much competition in the division
I wouldn't say "dominating" especially with the recent fights. There are also good competitions waiting for him. I would want him to have a rematch with Reyes to put all doubts from their first fight to rest.

the light heavyweight division had some heavy knockout punchers and the reason for Jon Jones to move up is because he knows these fighters are really slow and if he could maintain the distance and with the speed advantage he can win.
I don't think that strategy won't work well. Yeah you can run and run inside the octagon and throw jabs but there's a point that both fighters will clinch and brawl. And if that happens, Jon would be in a big trouble. Remember, HW fighters are well known for "one shot, one kill" plays and not sustainability

1. Jones will slow down too if he's going to add more weight. His ever reliable cardio would be affected too.
2. I think we are forgetting is a wrestler and clinching is nothing new to him. In fact, it could be advantageous for him if they go to a clinch. He's a crafty/dirty fighter after all
I just hope it won't be something like Adesanya vs Romero. Lol. Wrong move by giving Romero a chance imo. Adesnya should've just waited it out til Costa could fight.
